Chapter 355: Scarlet North City

Zhou Zheng was in front, and Wei Xizhuang's hundred dead soldiers took him and followed behind Zhou Zheng.

Shangguan Qing, Liu Liuzhe, Shangguan Lie, Cao Bianjiao and others were faster than Zhou Zhengchong, and the morale of the Ming army was like a rainbow, and the murderous spirit was washed off.

"One head or two!"

One soldier yelled, cut down one of the prisoners, and then rushed to the second.

"One or two buy ten old sows for my mother!"

"Two-two! Buy silk for your mother-in-law! ”

"Fifty-five taels, I want to donate my son's fame, you give me death!"

Every soldier of the Ming army is going crazy, fighting desperately, and even there is a scene of fighting for his life!

It didn't take long for Hauge and Yueto to notice that something was wrong.

In the past, the Ming army was either defeated in one fell swoop and fled into a rout, or it was vulnerable and could be easily defeated.

But this Ming army was tenacious and terrifying, not only blocking their offensive, but even gaining the upper hand!

This is not the reason why they rushed into battle, and the soldiers were not in good shape!

"Cheer me up, kill all the southern barbarians, there is gold, women, and wine in the capital, you can have everything you want!" Hauge drank.

Yue Tuo is also constantly boosting morale and fighting desperately.

Zhou Zheng fell into the chaos of the army, even if he was protected by special forces, he was still injured, but he didn't realize it, there was only the enemy in front of him, and he only knew how to fight.

Only at this moment did I know that those so-called tactics were all trivialities, bells and whistles, and nothing could be more real than this moment!

Zhou Zheng's military formation was imitated by Cao Bianjiao's Qi Jiguang, who rehearsed for many days, both offensive and defensive, and was quickly tempered in the war.

"Kill!"

Both sides are yelling, not giving an inch, sticking together in the open space, like a huge meat grinder, constantly harvesting human lives.

The combined forces of Man Gui and Zhao Shujiao also faced Amin, the number of the two armies was equal, although there was a gap in combat power, but the Ming army was a 'surprise attack' after all, and it occupied a lot of advantages in its heart, which was worthy of a draw.

The diplomatic battle between the two armies in the capital, the roar of killing shook the sky, and it was another key battle, which affected the hearts of the entire capital.

Chongzhen was restless in the Qianqing Palace, and finally stood outside the palace gate, looking at the direction of the north gate from afar, listening to the tragic roar and killing sound, he said to himself: "You say, can they win?" ”

Chongzhen regrets it now, if he left Zhou Zhengyun and Mangui to defend the city, maybe he wouldn't be as uneasy as he is now.

Wang Chengen said: "Long live the lord, isn't there still a British duke?" ”

Chongzhen suddenly felt a lot more relaxed when he heard this, there are still 20,000 people in the hands of the British duke, Man Gui, Zhou Zhengyun can hold it, and the British duke will not be bad.

Thinking like this, he felt fortunate that he ordered Zhou Zheng and Man Gui to leave the city, if one of these two people had different aspirations, he would become a prisoner of Jianyu and the king of the country.

Li Zhong watched from the sidelines, his heart was a little chilled.

Long live the lord, is this deliberately letting Zhou Zhengyun and Man Gui go to death? Did they do something wrong?

Li Zhong once again remembered Zhou Zheng's explanation, bowed his head slightly, became more and more cautious, and kept telling himself in his heart, 'You must talk less in the future!' ’

Shen Yongmao, Bi Ziyan, Zhou Qingli was standing on the Anding Gate at the moment, looking at the place where the two armies were fighting more than ten miles away.

Shen Yongmao's noodles sank like water, and his breathing was one meal at a time.

Bi Ziyan's slender face was indifferent, and his eyelids kept jumping.

Compared to them, Zhou Qingli's dark face couldn't see any expression, but the hands she was holding were sweaty.

This battle is related to the national fortune of the Ming Dynasty, and they all know that the British people can't hold the capital, and the key is Zhou Zheng, Man Gui, and Zhao Shujiao.

Every minute and every second, they were afraid of the news of the defeat.

When there was endless fighting outside the city, there was still no peace in the court, and many people pointed the finger at Yuan Chonghuan.

accused him of holding troops forward, causing the capital to be in danger, ill-intentioned, and even colluding with Jianyu.

In fact, Yuan Chonghuan also carried out tentative attacks on Huang Taiji's army, but all of them were defeated and retreated.

His 200,000 troops are all miscellaneous troops, and it is already difficult to defend the city, where can he dare to go out of the city? If Huang Taiji seized the opportunity and defeated him in one fell swoop, it would be a catastrophe.

Therefore, he stopped fighting from time to time and restrained Huang Taiji.

Wang Yuanya, the governor of Shanxi, stood beside Yuan Chonghuan, looked at the direction of the capital worriedly, and said, "I don't know if they can hold the ......."

They all know that Jianyu is short of food and grass, and they will support it for three days at most, this is the last day, as long as they survive today, they will have to retreat if they don't retreat!

But what if it fails?

Yuan Chonghuan didn't speak, now he can't do anything but wait, if he leaves Jizhou, he can only be intercepted and killed by Huang Taiji.

The great Ming Dynasty can't find an army that can fight against Jianyu!

Outside the north gate of the capital, the war continues.

There are more than 20,000 people on both sides, and under various factors, the two sides can be tied, but neither of them will back down and be strangled together.

Zhou Zheng was covered in blood, his shoulders, back, legs, and arms were injured, and he was covered in blood, but he couldn't feel it, he only knew that he kept swinging the knife.

The people around him don't know how much they have changed, and they are still protecting him.

Wei Xizhuang, Liu Liuzhe, Shangguan Qing and others don't know where, the two armies are staggered together, and there is no formation to speak of.

"Ten taels, Lao Tzu is enough!"

A soldier from Yongping Mansion shouted, and before he could finish speaking, he was cut down by Jianyu.

"Five taels, thief mother-in-law, you have everything, you must be good to my son, you are not allowed to change my son's surname!"

A soldier yelled with blood on his face and plunged his knife into the chest of the fallen soldier.

"Daddy, we have the money we redeemed the land, and my son is worthy of you!"

One soldier rushed towards the fierce-eyed Jianyu soldiers, and the other pounced, both of them plunging their knives into each other's stomachs.

This kind of kind is constantly being staged, Zhou Zheng's army has an unprecedented morale, no one retreats, they are all desperately rushing to kill, wanting to get more heads.

The fighting will of Zhou Zheng's army completely shocked the Jianyu people, they had never encountered such a desperate army, it was like they were crazy and didn't want to die.

Hauge, Yue Tuo was red-eyed, they were also wounded, seeing that their offensive was blocked to death, and there was no hope of victory for a while, and there were soldiers who kept falling, both of them had gloomy faces, and they were like a tide of murder.

But it didn't take long for them to realize that this was not going to work, and even if they killed all the Ming army in the end, they wouldn't have many people left!

What is the point of such a disastrous victory, can you still capture the capital of the Ming people?

"How's Amin's side?" Hauge yelled.

Yue Tuo said: "I don't know, I definitely didn't win, otherwise this Ming army wouldn't be able to hold on to now!" ”

Hauge's face was full of hideousness, and he said, "What now?" ”

They have few prisoners, and the loss of 10,000 people is enough for them to feel distressed, if they lose 20,000 or 30,000 people here, the blow to them will be huge, I don't know how long it will take to recover!

Yue Tuo also knew that it would not work like this, but the two armies were already stuck together, what tactics could they have, in addition to continuing to fight, would it be difficult to retreat?

"Keep killing!" Yue Tuo gritted his teeth and said loudly.

The corners of Hauge's face twitched, and he rushed forward again.
